Install XP on a laptop computer without hard disk

I have some difficulty installing XP on my portege 2010 that have now Linux installed. I have an external USB - dvd - disk, however, the BIOS does not boot USB. I don't want to buy a usb floppy drive or pcmcia reader. So it seems to me the solutions left installation via the net (pxe boot), which is almost impossible in Windows and to initiate a drive hard pcmcia. The latter seems interesting, however, it is difficult to find information on this. Someone at - it starts all experience in this way? Or am I missing some easier way? Any help appreciated.

Marcus

Hi Marcus,

try pressing F12 or ESC at startup to enter the boot menu, and then select USB. If this does not work, change the boot priority in the BIOS. IF she's not even boot from the CD, check the Linux DVD player.

Good bye

  • HP beats 15 laptop: computer drive HARD failure diagnosis

    Hi people,

    I'm a little angry, I hope one of you lovely people can help me with some advice. My wife tried using the contact HP online support face today, but did not get a useful answer. The laptop in question has still 2 months warranty on this subject and I would like this issue to be fixed before the expiration of the warranty.

    The problem:

    A month or two ago my wife said that the laptop occasionally runs slowly or freezes at random times, then started working again without problem. I'm on the laptop, run scans antivirus, temporary files clear and others with CCleaner, uninstall unnecessary programs and then turn off most of the autobooting services and programs with msconfig. Nothing really came from him, but he did and apparently not having problems while I used it.

    A week later, more complaints that the laptop was running slower than optimal, with another request to examine it. This time he did freeze while I use it, so I run ladies sfc diagnostics and memory, which came to own. Then it was time to try to run through the optimization of windows to speed it up a little.

    Has held a few weeks for me since then, always heard there are problems, but not having is not the opportunity to study.

    Last night I finally get around to running the diagnostics of HP at the start and check out the source (I hope!) of the problem. Hard disk check is coming up with an error indicating that the disk is not healthy, technical Department should be contacted directly. I saved the newspapers to a USB port, I'll post the results in the next post.

    The solution:

    Could I please have some advice on the best way to proceed on this matter now? I'd appreciate any help.

    Kind regards

    Jason

    Hi Jason,

    The hard drive is indeed a failure and needs to be replaced - just contact HP and make arrangements for this under warranty.

    The section of the report you cite is UBV6LF-7HQ7SB-MFPV6K-60 X 103 because this will confirm the diagnostic failure with software HPs.

    If you live in the United Kingdom, contact HP here.

    If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

    If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

    Kind regards

  • Laptop computer without OS and revovery partition deleted

    Hi all.  I help a friend who recently bought a used Dell laptop which seems to be in good working condition, however, it won't start.  The former owner told him that they wiped the hard drive prior to the sale, which is always a good idea.  The problem is that they have deleted partition recovery as well.   So, I headed to Dell support on the resolution of the problem.  Given that the PC is out of warranty their only solution was to sell him a new bundled software.  So, as always, seems to be the case, when everything has failed, MS is going to save the day.  Can someone tell me on what options are available to get a working copy and legal Windows working on his PC?  According to the tags on the PC, it was initially delivered with pre-installed Vista Basic.  He would be happy with just a basic OS work for now and upgrade at a later date if he decides the computer is worth the upgrade.  We are not looking for pirated copies to install, just something the OEM license can activate.  Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions that you guys can offer.

    One more quick question.  When a used PC is sold, the OEM license remains with the PC?  I'm sure that it cannot be legally transferred to another computer so I assumed that he transferred to the new owner.

    Hello

    If the computer/laptop comes with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) or is licensed to OEM System Builders, that the product key that came with the computer/laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) and the license OEM System Builders are related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when machine who dies.

    Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    You can borrow and use a DVD Vista Microsoft (selling retail or OEM System Builders License), which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    The COA sticker is either or in the battery compartment on the underside of the laptop.

    With a desktop computer, it's on the side, the back or the top of the computer case.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit editions different DVD lights.

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

    Hello!

    I have a problem with my laptop. He informed that I don't have an operating system installed. Where can I see my hard drive?

    Hi Jack,

    I assume that your error message appears when you try to boot your system, in which case it would seem that you master boot record is damaged on your hard drive.

    You can, of course to restore your system from your recovery CD, but that it will return to its original state, and you will lose your data, unless your drive has been partitioned.

    If you want to access your data on your hard drive you will need to a CD (or bootable FDD) that will get you access to attempt to recover your HARD drive.

  • Install XP: Setup did not find any hard disk installed

    I have this old computer. When I try to install Windows Xp, it says that Setup did not find any hard disk. I have readers of diskette and cd on the computer. A source told me that I need a SATA RAID driver until I do.

    Windows XP

    Correct, you will need to download the appropriate TXTmode drivers and put them on a floppy disk. If you have a MSI motherboard in your system, you will get these drivers from MSI.

    It would be also possible to get Windows to load with a change in your BIOS settings, but I recommend that get you the correct drivers.

    Recently, I bought a new laptop, Satellite A200 - 1 GB, and after two weeks of fighting against windows Vista I decided to uninstall it and install WXP whose permit, I bought a long time ago.

    I restarted my computer with the Windows XP cd to the inside and I start the system with it, but when it loads all the controllers and I proceed with the installation of windows xp, it says that there is no disk (probably) in my laptop.

    I hope someone can help me. Someone at - it windows XP installation experience in this laptop model?

    Hello

    The species has been described several times here in the forum of Toshiba.
    Recommend studying a little ;) would use the advanced search option Forum!

    But because you're a beginner, that I'll try to give some useful advice.
    The HARD drive is not visible because you need to first install the Intel Matrix storage controller.
    This controller can be downloaded form or another page Toshiba or Intel page.

    During the installation of XP, you will need to press the F6 key to include this iMSM in the XP installation. You will need an external USB HDD drive to do this.

    But if you want, you can build an own XP CD using nLite software and could understand this iMSM in the XP CD again.

    No, you can't. The current cell if its either retail or OEM is already active and in use on the current laptop.

    Also, if the license of Windows 7 is pre-installed, you can not transfer it.
